Ipad contest.....
Boy, I could REALLY use the upgrade to some modern equipment. Using my Compaq Portable Plus Luggable ('286 chip, 640K mem upgraded from 128k, 5 Mg hard drive, 5 1/2" floppy, 28 pounds in weight), I can only use pcwrite and lotus 123.
Since my modem gave out a few years back I haven't been be able to get onto Compuserve (I dropped GEnie a few years ago), so something with maybe at least a 1200 baud modem would help. (I haven't checked my compuserve mail in a number of years so my email box may be overflowing.)
I think 3G should be sufficient speedwise so I'll sacrifice the Ipad configuration even though it doesn't have decent dial up capability. Connect time at Compuserve is *ONLY* $30/hr so the 3G speed should save me money.
